The Ohio District 5 Area Agency on Aging is receiving a donation of $1 million.
RichlandSource.com reports, the funding is coming from CareSource, which is a national non-profit health plan. The money will allow the Area Agency on Aging to expand programs to help people in need in Richland, Ashland, Crawford, Knox, Huron, Marion, Morrow, Seneca and Wyandot counties. CEO Duana Patton said they are honored to receive the gift, as many times traditional federal, state and local funds don't cover all the needs of the people they serve.
